Solitude

Sometimes it is impossible to decide which images to show. Celine Clanet has so many stunning images from her series in north of Norway. On her website Celine says: "Between 2005 and 2009, I travelled regularly to Máze, a small Sámi village located at the highest point of the European map, far above the Arctic Circle, in Norwegian Lapland. There, I met quiet people, sometimes melancholic, captivating, very proud of their village and territory, of these landscapes they are constantly gazing at with binoculars they never separate from, even at home." I almost showed only the images of people with their binoculars as I found them rather touching. They see their landscapes all the time and yet they are so happy and proud of it, that they wish to gaze beyond.
